I was surprised when my daughter and brother ordered pork shanks in a restaurant recently. That was downhome upscale food and it was just wonderful stuff.

What's this about lamb shanks? They're not "up and coming", either.
I've been buying them a couple of times a year for the last 20 years at
least. There have been so many threads here about lamb shanks in that
time I couldn't begin to count them. Also threads about oxtail soup.

Methinks dsi1 needs to study up on food on the mainland before he starts
trying to pretend he knows what is trending.
